Did you know?
In nine Massachusetts communities, 35 schools are on the verge of a new beginning. State and federal policy changes have created new opportunities and provided new resources for these under-achieving “Level 4” schools to embark on an unprecedented turnaround aimed at ensuring that all students perform at the highest levels.
These schools have new resources — including greater autonomy and additional funding and services for students — to accelerate their progress. Many have dynamic new principals who believe in supporting and empowering teams of talented educators. They have committed teachers seeking talented new colleagues who can help the school achieve significant gains in student achievement. Above all, they have hard-working families who want only the best for their children.
Now they need you.
Outstanding classroom instruction is critical to the success of these schools — and the students they serve.
Great teachers — amazing teachers — are the key.
